Dirty Little Secret ~ Ch.2

Dirty Little Secret ~ Ch.2
I heard Scout coming back and I quickly scooted away from Ashley. That girl wasn’t normal…. Well I’m not saying I am… She’s just, not… there. She had a secret and I was gonna find out what. But then the bell rang, telling us lunch was over. I gathered up my stuff and went to my homeroom. Thankfully, Ashley didn’t share that with me, but Scout did. I got to the room before Scout though; she was showing Ashley where her homeroom was. But as soon as I saw Scout come in the door I gave her the “I have a plan. You’re gonna help me.” Look. Scout rolled her eyes, knowing that look all too well and sat next to me. “What is it this time?” She groaned. I looked at her in all seriousness and swung around in my chair so I was facing her. “Ashley has something up her sleeve,” I started. “There’s something up with her and I’m going to find out one way or another.” Scout just looked at me for a moment, expressionless, then busts out laughing until Mr.Tino yelled at her; telling her to calm down. Scout looked at the teacher apologetically and then looked at me, a giggle still in her voice. “You can’t be serious… Ashley is innocent, she just got here today!” “I know that!” I snapped. “But there’s something I can’t exactly place that is going on with her!”  I was not about to lose an argument with her… again.
Scout looked at me with her arms crossed. “Oh, and what do you intend to do? Follow her home and watch her until you find out something?” I stayed silent and looked down at my feet. Scout’s arms dropped to the side. “Oh no…”

We waited in Scout’s car soon before Ashley got to her car. Once she got in and started to drive off, I said and pointed slightly. “Onward, Watson!” She glared at me as she started to carefully follow Ashley. “Oh, so you think your Sherlock Holms now?” I looked at her blankly. “Yes.” She shook her head and drove.  
I had Scout to park across the street as we finally followed Ashley to a smallish looking house, a moving van still parked in front of it. I watched closely as I watched her enter her home. “I’m going in.” Scout hit my arm to stop me from going out the passenger’s door. “What are you gonna say?! ‘Oh, I’m here to spy on your daughter if that’s okay.’? No! Andy, I’m coming with you!” I grinned. “Alright, Watson,” I said in a shitty British accent. “Follow me!” I heard Scout sigh as she got out of the car.
Scout and I walked up to the front porch of a brick house; it was a small, but cute little house. She knocked on the door and smiled at the elderly lady that showed up in the doorway. “Oh, hello, dears…” She smiled. “How may I help you?” Scout smiled her kindest smile and said simply. “We’re friends of Ashley… Is she here?” The old woman chuckled a little then turned to the stairway behind her and shouted. “Ashy! Some nice kids are here to see you!” I heard footsteps coming down the staircase. “Kids..? Grandma, what are you-“ Then I saw it…Ashley was shirtless. She…NO HE! He…was standing there, face blood red, shirtless.

Scout’s mouth dropped open; I stood there, slightly behind Scout, blushing deep red. Ashley’s body was perfect… Tan, muscle, and best of all, he had “OUTLAW” scrawled over his navel. As hard as I tried, I couldn’t stop staring. Then he said, in a slightly raised voice. “What the hell? Scout? Andy? What did you do? Follow me home?”  Scout just looked around “Uh…” I just stayed silent, still staring at him. “I’ll see you guys tomorrow!” Scout said quickly than ran out the door and to her car, driving off without me. I was stuck.
